i've killed about a dozen deer and big bunches of hogs with my CVA Staghorn and 240 grain XTP bullets. Very few of the animals ever went anywhere when hit. Few of the bullets were recovered. One 240 grain XTP that was recovered went through a deer standing broadside and hit another doe behind her what was quartering toward me.Both deer bang flopped. Distance was about 125 yards. Powder was 130 grains of loose Pyrodex. My wife was cutting up a deer ham for jerky and found that bullet. Would take a photo and post it but my digital camera is on vacation with my wife. Found it!!! Got it mixed up with another photo.
This is Falcon's XTP 240g. How much does the bullet weigh? It looks broken up to me but it did the job. I prefer the bullet to loose no weight or very little. Chap
